One of the most important ways to improve as a musician is through private lessons. There is no substitute for weekly sessions of individualized instruction by an instrument specialist.Not only does the student receive individualized instruction (whereas the school lesson is with a small group) the private lesson is weekly (whereas the school lesson occurs approximately every eight to ten days). Private lesson instructors serve as an ideal model and mentor to assist in your child's improvement in areas of tone, technique, and general musicianship. The helpful hints or minor adjustments suggested by the instructor can greatly improve your child's playing ability.
Inclusion on this list is in no way to be considered an endorsement by the Spring Grove Area School District. Private instruction is an agreement between the parents/guardians, student, and private teacher of your choice and is completely independent of the Spring Grove Area School District. Spring Grove Area School District assumes no responsibility for the content or quality of instruction by an independent private music teacher.
Please contact the desired instructor from the list if you are interested in professional instruction. Lesson prices are set by the instructor and most range from $12 and upward per half hour.
